:^v;'!the g&me would not take place-be-

These actlcn brought a measure of
f
jysuccess when the Georgia state board
«^of regenfa said they \vould allov
the Sugar Bovvl game to go on. How-
•erver, the future is still uncertain
because of a new inihng adopted
by the board.
The Board's new policy stated ihat
in future contracts by state colleges,
no game conditions shall exist, "re-pugnant
.to the laws, customs and
traditions of the host state." In
other words, discrimmation against
teams with Negro players on them
Is new a law. This rulmg. would let
Georgia tenms play m other regions
where there is no segregation, but
teams from those; regions could not
pay return visits to Georgia without
leav.Jig their Negro players home,
which they probably would refuse to
•do.
N c t o n y does thls new .law in
Georgia lash out at Negro sportsmen..
but it dooir.s the Georgia Eleven as

THE PATH AHEAD
PREVENTION IS STILL
THE BEST MEDICINE
A Christmas Story Inspired by the Kalevala
By IIENBV LAHTI and* GULLIVEIl
"yaan kuitenki, kaikitenki
: Lattn hii/tin lattia joille,
Laun hiihin, laivan taitoin,
Oksat karsin, tien osoitin;^
Siitäpä nyt tie menevi.
Ura ttusi urkenevi
Laajcmmiilc laula joille,
Jiunsakammille runoille
Nuorisossa nousevassa,
Kansassa kasvavassa"
(Kalevala: 50. runo; 611-620)
Once upon a tlme, m the land of
Tomorrow, there was a village on
^the River of Life. This nveryfIowed
•from the Clinton Mountains into the
Don Sea; In this village lived . . .
Santa Claus!
The village .was full of children.
: They were happy children; They
were happy because they saw Santa
Claus every day.
Tiie boys and girlshelped Santa
every day. Sometimesihe had to put
his shop back in order after they
left. . At.times like that Santa was
annoyed because the children only
made more wörk for hlm. .
'Jaha, but itmakes me feel good
to bring joy to the youngsters," Santa
mused to himself afterwards. "And
•to see the mterestvvhich my helpers
have begun to take is really hearten-ing."
And it was true. During the years,
more and 'more of the older youth
had worked with Santa. They had
learned the secrets of the craft he
knew SO .well.
And then ithappened!-
One Autumn morning Santa woke
feellng strangely stiff and tired. He
thought about the Winter season that
was coming. "I wonder how many
palrs of skates - r - how many slelghs
I will have to make," he said aloud.
Then, "and I just don't seem able to
start. I vonder If I am 111? No,
that could not be so. I have never
been ill in my life. I wonder ^vdat
it can be?"
. But, Santa Claus did, in the back
of his mind, understand what made
him move a little slower. He knew
what caused hlm to bring: the blue-pnnts
much closer to his eyes. How-ever
he wäs not ready tö admit it.
You see, Santa Claus was getting
Old!
• ^ • • •. , • « • , •»
When Santa fmally got started he
worked very hard; like he had never
worked before. Still he noticed he
was falling furfcher behihd.
. ;Late one night Santa was working
by candlelight when he heard a pur-poieful
knock at hLs door. . " I won-der
who tnat can be?" he said tö
himseli, shufflmg to the door. He
cautiously opened it and was greeted
by a chorus of young voices. • Good
evening, Santa Claus, may we come
m?" "Certamly." repUed Santa; and
in trooped six merry young people.
There was Boo, a sniihng teenager,
whom Santa recognized as the fellow
who-amused himself by doing hand-stands
in the work£hop. .
He was followed by Lea, the girl
W i t h the hltmg voice. Santa often
entreated lier to sing his favourite
songs. ,• -. .
Third m' the group was Heikki.
Santa was not surpnsed to sse him.
To Santa's mind it seemed that Heik­ki
could ahvays be found where there
was activity. •
Even before they stepped into the
light. Santa recognized the next
couple. It was Kalevi and Linda,
who often drew second glances by
their Shakespearean mterpretations
— even of blueprints.
The door was quietly closed by
Niilo, the last to enter.
Santa humedly placed chairs and
stools. As he took döwn the coffee-grinder
he remarked, . "everyone
please take a seat while I put on a
pot of coffee!"
Nobody spoke for a few momehts.
Audible only were the sounds of the
coffee-grinder; the crackling fire,
and the eerie north wind. .
Niilo, who relaxed in an armohair,
finally broke the silence. "Santa,
we have bee*i trying to think of a
way to pass these long Winter even-
Ings. _Some of us thought that per-haps
you would let us work in your
shop. If you told us what hqd to be
done we coula help you with töys for
the children."
Santa had listened to Niilo very
intently. Niilo had always Impressed
him bjr his sincere manner and se­rious
ways. He had been Santa's
most apt pupil. He quickly learned
ali that was taught him, and had
eagerly helped the others by passing
on his knowledge. .
After some thought Santa replled,
"why certalnly. I will be glad to
have you here."
This started an excited buzz of
conversation, which lasted far into
the nlght. It was only momentarjly
interrupted by the aroma of fragrant
coffee. . .- >
The rabbit paused briefly, startled
by the pattem of light east from the
cottage window. Then he quietly
vanished into the cold December
night. , •. •
Santa's chores for the evening were
finished, but he was' not tired to-night.
The shelves overflowing with
toys gave him a feelmg of deep satis-faction.
His glance was drawn once
more to the cymer shelf . . . One
persistent thought had revolved in
his mind for many days. -
This stnking group of toys, whlch
his new^found helpers had pieced
together, was in sharp contrast to
the Old reliable models made from
Santa's- time-wom ^atterns; Santa
had been dubious when Niilo first
displayed the sketches. But because
ali the other Wrk was going sotTell.
Santa jhad given his consent for! the
trial models. Much to his surprise
the new toys had immediately ap-pealed
to the children . . . One per­sistent
thought had revolved in his
mind for many days.
The next day Santa was seen bus-ily
cleaning his house. Clouds of
dust floated from the open doorway.
Willing young hands helped beat and
air the mats. Little boys were seen
popplng in and out of ali the homes
in the village.
The full moon, rising over the Clin­ton
Mountains, east a soothing sha-dow
over the frozen surface of. the
River of Life. Overhead the North­ern
Lights. added their own eoiour
to the wonderful nlght. The repeated
jingle of sleigh hells. announced The
arrival of guests at Santa's door. -
Inside, the toe-tapping strains of a
•harmonikka" gave a gay atmosphere
to the gathering. Piping hot coffee
was being passed around to the
guests. The youngest children •were
having a merry time roUing in the
deep fresh straw spread on the floor.

SAME SERVICE
The veteran husband of 10 years
was at the marriage counsellor's.
"When^was first married," said the
unhappy spouse, "I was very happy,
rd come home late at night. My
little dog would race aroun^ barklng
and my wlfe would bring me my sllp-pers.
Now after 10 years of married
life everything changed. Now when I
come home, my dog hrings me my
shppers, and my wlfe barks at me."
"I don't know what you're com-plaining
about," said the marriage
counsellor, "you're still getting the
same service."
THE SNAG
One girl seemed to be just whät
the film producer, interviewing appli-cahts
for the heroine's. part wanted.
"Yes, you"re just what we heed,"
he told her. '^Right face, rlght color-
Ing, rlght ivoice, everything called for
in the part, By the way, what salary
are you expecting?"
The girl named her sum.
•Sorry," said the produccr, hur-riedly.
"YouYe too tall.«' '
Presently, Santa caJled for atten-tion
and began to speak as foIlow£:
"My dear frlends. I have Invited
you here tonight to jneet six of our
young people whom you wiU recog-^
nize and wlll come to know well m
the future."
Santa asked Bob, Lea, Heikki, K a ­levi;
iLlnda and Niilo to step fonvard.
He continued, 'T have a presen-tation
to make to these yoimg people.
During my years as the village toy-maker
I have gathered a certain
amount of knowledge in that art;
Also, I have acquired a great many
of the tools necessary for this trade.
Together these have given me much
enjoyment and provided me witihj a
purpose In life, my responsibility to
the community. However,. this res-r
ponsibility could only be fulfilled, and
the utmost good achieved from these
materials, by tireless work. This I
no longer feel myself capable of."
"Therefore. I would entrust you
six young people with the tools ner
cessary for carrying on the work!"
"Will you accept?"
•'But let this be as it may bc,
I kave shown-the way to singers, '
ShoTJued the way, and broke the
• trec-tops,
Cut the branches, shown the
pathways.
This way therefore leaäs the
pathway,
Here the path lies newly opened,
Widely Open jor the singers,
And jor greater ballad singers.
For the young, who now are
growing.
For the rising generation"
Kalevala: 50th€anto; 611-620)
WINTER OLYMPICS
The Russians Are Stronger
But Canadians Still Favored
iThe Russian national hockey team
served notice last week tliat it would
b3 a real threat in the Winter Olym-pic
Games in February.
In as many days, the Soviet team
won 3 games by scores of 11—1, 5r-4
and 3-2 against the Harringay Racers
(2) and, Wembley Lions. The last
two games were pla;yed against teams
oomposed mainly of Canadian players.
For the second contest, the Harrin­gay
Racers vere^strengthened by five
Canadian players f rom Wembley, m-cludlng
goalie Ron Kllby of Kitchener
and It looked for a. time as if the
Racers would t um the tables on the
speedy Russian visitors. But Ihe^ So-vlets
bounced back in thethird penod
from behind a 4—1 deficit and scored
the winning tally with less than three
minutes to play. <
• In the Wembley game, the English
'team again took the lead in the fitst
period, but the Russians retaliated
with two fest «oaJs and led 2—1: as
the period ended.
jnib game got 'livelier in the second
period when th'e Lions hegan uslng
Canadian-type body checks: For a
while the slick pattem passing gf the
Russians was disorganized ahd mid-way
throug'h the period; the Lion's
playing coachbatted i n a Icose puck
to tie the score.
But the Soviets, who had studied
films of last year's Stanley Cup
games, reorganized their attack and
scored the winning goal .with three
minutes left in the game.
.After the game, the Wembley coach
impressed by the Soviet team, sug-pested.
that Kitchener-Waterloo Dut-chmen
(Canada's entry m the Winter
Olympics — Ed.) play a "man-to-man
game" when they meet the
Russians In the tournament.
. "I thinlt the Dutchmen should beat
the Russians by three goals if Miey
use plenty of body checks", he said.

• What's to be done about, i t wben
you do get one?
After 5,000 years or so of cWiUzed
living and 2,000 years of medical
science, ihe doctors and ecientists
have ye^ to come up wjth anything
that wm pre\'ent or stop them.
Consullation with doctors today re-veals
that the- only answer they
have is; doh't catch one.
-;When you do, you're advised not
to go messlng around wjth ali those
fancy "cold remedies" advertised so
expensively. According to no less an
authority than Dr. -Norman McCul-loiigh
of the U.S. National Mlcrobio-logical
Institute, those antihlstamine
drugs are worthless for colds. Chest
rubs, Dicarbonate of soda, antiblotlcs
and äll those other thlngs in current
vogue, are not,only of:no.help but
in some cases can even be harmful.
Nose di-cps, he conceded, wlll help
clear siuffed nasal passages; but
they shouldn't be used for more than
three days lest they inflame the
mucous membranes: and do more
damage than good.
The doctor has some simple rules
to avoid colds, but the way most of
us live, these rules must be appli-cable
to some other planet. At any
rate, here they are:
Avoid undue fatlgue. Over-exer-tion
reduces resistance, allowing 'la-tent
viruses to flare into activity and
cause trouble.
Avoid chills. It is particularly im-portant
to avoid drafts while sleeping.
Chills also > reduce resistance.
— Avoid d c s e contact wlth others
ishotove colds;.
Avoid overheVing. We£
